We love greens- salads. We always try to encourage our kid to eat more vegetables. Other than the regular stir fried vegetables which is so common to the Chinese. We wanted her to try something new. I want her to be more adventurous in food & yes..she love food just like we do.
Introduce the delicious homemade croutons! Surprising she love the fresh salad with the crunch.
You can use any type of bread to make croutons. However it is better to use days old bread which already dried out. It is a waste to throw it away, you can make it into croutons & keep in air tight container for soups/salads. The French are very good in maximize the use of the bread.
Personally, I prefer to use low sugar bread e.g. baguette, french country bread or sourdough.
1st step: cut all bread into small cubes.
2nd step: season it properly & bake
Toss all the cube bread with olive oil, salt, pepper, herbs (rosemary/ thyme / basil) & lots of garlic. Bake in the preheated oven @170'c for 5 mins- 10 mins. If you like it crunchier, you can bake it longer but do not burn it.
Enjoy~
